The Answer Is No

In The Answer Is No, the narrative describes the story of a school teacher who went through a difficult time dealing with her personal and psychological conflict. In her painful memory of childhood, she was violated by her tutor (schoolmaster) who came over her house to give her private lessons. It happened when her parents were not home and she was not aware of his shameful action. Furthermore, he was trying to cover his serious sin by convincing her that everything was normal and that he loved her. He promised to propose her whenever she got to her legal age. Time passed by, she grew up and realized his evil intention and felt hurt and violated. She refused his proposal when he came back to fulfill his promise. She rejected his evilness and wanted to stay away from him. The story presents an unbelievable life event in the childhood of an innocent girl who was a target of an unexpected crime. Yet, it created an outrageous feeling to the readers against the unethical action in the past of the schoolmaster. The story was a tragedy which reflects the sadness and unexpected truth. It occurs to me that the poor girl must have suffered tremendously from the disgraceful violation by her tutor. The story somehow created anger inside me because it reveals an undesirable crime which our society does not allow. Indeed, the action of the tutor was a great sin which totally against my belief.

Furthermore, I would consider the tutor's crime as an evil act against our social morality. In fact, the story creates fear in me because there might be more of those violations in our society that we do not know. In my opinion, the tutor's immoral action was so dangerous and harmful to the young generation. We need to be aware of any bad intention to violate young children in our community and our society.

Lastly, the story reminds me that we need to prepare and educate children to be aware of the criminal violation that might affect them physically, and psychologically. I...

...The Answer Is No From centuries to centuries the role of women has been predominantly subordinate to the role of men. Men have been known to be superior in both physical and mental levels. They are also most likely to have an "upper hand" in situations based on their gender. An example of such situation is taken place in "The Answer Is No", written by Naguib Mahfouz. This story has a considerable amount of sexual politics. On one side you have a women who is powerless and feels trapped because of her position. Yet on the other hand her weakness becomes her strength, which leads her to her "happiness." The feminism in the story is implicit. The main character is a woman who has suffered through a sexual encounter that has scarred her for life. More so, she feels that she has nowhere to go and is forced to be silent in her own misery. Badran Badwi, is the man who takes advantage of the girls innocence and nobility. He not only inflicts harm on her, but knowing that she is vulnerable he continues to terrorize her and comes back into her life without having any sense of remorse for doing what he did. "The Answer Is No" demonstrates the consequences that a woman has to suffer due to a man's ego and dominative character trait. It also represents woman as being week and vulnerable in the eyes of a man. Essentially one cannot argue that it is impossible to imagine reversing the male-female roles in this story.
